From the foothills to the pines and steeped in Gold Rush history and charm, the Sierra Foothills Wine Country Experience is a more accessible and easy-going wine tasting adventure that offers quality and value at the same time. With over 200 wineries, large and small, showcasing a number of styles and varietals, they’ll go head to head with Napa anytime.

ALE

Considered “The Heartland of West Coast Beer,” the Sacramento Region is a beer-lover’s paradise and really knows its suds! The nationwide resurgence of craft beer is heartily represented by over 70 regional craft breweries and beer-centric events that will satisfy even the most discerning enthusiast. Enjoy everything from big name craft producers to small “farm to glass” countryside brewery experiences.

EAT

As America’s Farm-to-Fork Capital, Sac knows food! From high-end farm to fork fare to burgers and pizza, Sac has it all and that means a whole lot of fantastic food choices to pair with your wine & ale experience. Pack a picnic, find a restaurant to hit up after your day of wine & ale adventure or order up directly from a gourmet food truck right on site.

PLAY

Some call Sac’s abundance of outdoor activities “The Authentic California Experience” and that means everything from a hike in the rolling foothills of Placer or El Dorado to a stroll or ride along the American or Sacramento River. Many wineries and breweries are located near favorite trails, rivers & lakes, making that glass of craft beer or wine even more satisfying at the end of your chosen adventure.

STAY

With a total of 16,000 hotel rooms, Sac has a variety that fits all budgets. From familiar brands to boutique hotels and then small unique vacation stays through Airbnb and VRBO, the Sacramento Region is in the middle of it all and offers any style of place to lay your head during your Wine & Ale adventure.
